"This volume features the long, surprisingly dramatic sequence in which a grievously ill Charlie Brown checks himself into a hospital while his friends worry. But the rest of the stories in this final volume from the 1970s, are far less somber, as Snoopy launches his 'bird scout' treks, Peppermint Patty gets leaked on at school and sues--plus one of the great forgotten romances in Peanuts history."--Publisher's description.

In this volume of the classic comic strip, created by Charles Schulz himself, Snoopy's family suddenly expands, adding wandering brother Spike, beloved sister Belle, and even a nephew!

In this latest collection, romance is in the air: Charlie Brown's attempt at flirting in class sends him to the school nurse, while Linus is thwarted in his attempt to woo 'Lydia' of the many names. Other storylines include Snoopy's sojourn in the hospital for a hockey-related knee injury, Sally's bumpy career as a playwright, and Snoopy's 'kiss-and-tell' book. Plus Rerun, Spike, Peppermint Patty and Marcie ... and Snoopy's feathered Beagle Scouts....
